Vertical SB pylon question

Posts: 25
Few questions,

Have this vertical position pylon. It is broken up into 2 Widgets – first being the top 15, and the second the remainder 5 for a total of 20 positions.

I would like for this to show the top twenty, and then have the bottom 5 (bottom widget) show/change the remaining field. Field could be a total of 40, 33, I do not really know. Then return to the top 20 once this completes the entire field. Then have it keep cycling over-and-over. Make sense?

Question on the “how”: Assuming I would use timers here, but not sure. Also, would this truncate if say only 33 cars were in the race? Given that the bottom widget (5) would be in increments of 5.

Thanks in advance!!

This is most easily done with two tickers. The top one is a Static ticker with 15 items, which just shows the top15 and nothing else. The bottom one is a Paging ticker with 5 items, and a Data Offset of 15 to make it start at P16. It will automatically page through the field, starting at 16 and ending at however many results there are. Then it will go back to start at P16. If the last page doesn't have 5 results, it will not show anything for those.

This exact example can be seen in the ATVO Theme vertical ticker.

So no timers are needed for the function you mention above?

Nope, it is built into the "Paging ticker". There is a property that controls the timing, Update Interval I think.

make sure the ticker sub-widget is set to "is Dynamic" so empty rows don't show up.
